DID ANY OF YOU see the 8:00 PM episode of The Simpsons today? It spoofed The Phantom Menace with a movie called Cosmic Wars: The Gathering Storm. Despite the fact The Simpsons is like, 5 YEARS LATE in having this major parody...this episode gave a hilarious indictment on the prequels and George Lucas carrying more about digital technology than storyline. Pretty funny. So anyways... General Grievous is gonna rule in Episode III! He's gonna be the NEXT DARTH MAUL! (Thinks about what happened to Maul at the end of Episode I...) No wait...

Don't you guys like it how I always contradict myself over the prequels? One minute I'm calling Lucas a biatch for the failure of The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, the next minute I'm posting up several photos of that General Grievous fella on this page! Make up your mind, Parman! Anyways, it's almost 10:00 at night, and I have to get back to studying!!! But before I do... Here's an old pic of Britney Spears. She can't sing for squat, but I'd still do her.

Below are three pics that I found online dealing with Episode III. The one on the left, taken from a British newspaper, is of Anakin Skywalker after he is burnt from lava after the big lightsaber duel with Obi-Wan Kenobi, and the photo to the right is of the Jedi killer General Grievous...how he is gonna look in the movie...not of his crappy animated version that fans will soon see on the Cartoon Network. The pic below these two is concept art of Darth Vader being born as the Emperor looks on. And of course, another pic showing Grievous from different angles. If you think the general doesn't look cool enough (or at all), keep in mind that there are reports that this (SPOILER... Highlight to read.)deadly leader (who is half droid / half alien) of the Separatists' droid army uses four lightsabers simultaneously in the film. Guess how.

UPDATE: Since TheForce.Net didn't provide spoiler warnings for these aweseome artwork, I'll post these drawings here... Go to TheForce.Net to view these in their original size.

BATMAN BEGINS... This just in from batman-on-film.com: Gary Oldman, the dude who played Dracula and a Russian terrorist who punked Harrison Ford in Air Force One, plays Commissioner Gordon in Batman Begins!! That's gonna be cool... And don't forget about Katie Holmes being the damsel in distress in this film... David Julyan, Chris Nolan's composer on Memento, will be doing the music for Batman Begins. The last time I saw Memento was about three years ago, so I don't remember how Julyan's music sounds like.
